How self myofascial release works
The aim is the same as in the clinic: gentle, sustained pressure that gives the tissue time to soften. Hold a tender spot for 60 to 90 seconds rather than rolling quickly back and forth.

Four places to start
These are safe, simple starting points:
- Sole of the foot: roll a soft ball slowly under the arch
- Calves: a roller under the calf, crossing the other leg on top for more pressure
- Glutes: sit on a ball and lean gently into the tight spot
- Upper back: a ball between the shoulder blade and a wall

Movement and water
Fascia stays supple with varied movement in many directions and steady drinks through the day. Walking, gentle twists and side bends all help.
Reviews
Self myofascial release reviews
It opened my body up loads to where I could train harder for longer, and recover faster. I've sent people to James with fibromyalgia, back pain, sciatica and everyone has been helped.
He explained with videos and proof exactly what was going on in my body. He told me all about fascia. I picked my right hip and thigh. Just after 20 minutes there was no pain and no stiffness.

Questions
Self myofascial release: questions answered
Is foam rolling the same as myofascial release?
Foam rolling is a form of self release. Hands on work is slower and follows the whole line.
Where is best to work?
The feet, calves, glutes and upper back either side of the spine. Keep to the muscles and skip the front of the neck, varicose veins and any recent injury.
Can I do it every day?
Yes, gently.
